If you are planning to purchase your next piece of jewelry, like necklace, consider which type of metal you are going to purchase. Think about how this specific type of metal affects your budget, how its weight feels around your neck, how much maintenance is required to keep its good quality for a long period of time, and if your skin is sensitive enough to react while wearing it.

There are several metals used in jewelries like necklaces. Some of these are gold, silver, and platinum. There are also some alternatives such as ceramic, stainless steel, titanium, tungsten, and cobalt.

Platinum

This type of metal is precious as it has a naturally silverish-white hue and was popular ever since the early 20th century. This is a top choice of metal when it comes to jewelry. This type also doesn’t change color, fade, tarnish or oxidize.

Platinum jewelry is 30% more rare than gold. This means it is usually more expensive than gold. When used in jewelry, platinum is often mixed with a variety of other similar metals such as palladium, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium and osmium.
